Welcome to Ferdinand Herff Elementary School

2015-2016

Dear Herff families and visitors,

It is my honor and privilege to serve as your principal for the 2015-2016 school years. I am a long time employee of the San Antonio Independent School District. I started my career with the San Antonio Independent School District in 1977 as a bilingual classroom teacher. I taught most of those years at Pauline Nelson Elementary. After that I worked at Cooper Middle School for 4 years as the Campus Instructional Coordinator. For 4 years I was employed as the Academic Dean of School K at Sidney Lanier High School, and the past five years I was the principal at Robert B. Green Elementary.

My education includes a Bachelor’s degree from Trinity University and a Master’s degree from the University of the Incarnate Word. I obtained my Principal’s Certification through Region 20’s Cohort of Leadership Associates.

Our Campus goals include:

Safe and orderly learning environment

Improved academic performance: Acceptable by STAAR

Improve attendance: 97.5%

Parent and community involvement

I look forward to working with you and your children to make these goals become a reality. Please know that I am available during the school day at 210.228.3330 if ever you need to speak to me.
